FOREWORDPut Safety First!

This Safety Section contains important information to help you work safely with your machine and describes the dangers inherent in our machines. Some of these dangers are obvious, while others are less evident.

It really is important to PUT SAFETY FIRST. Make it a habit to consider the hazards associated with any action BEFORE

from your supervisor.

The SAFETY FIRST approach is particularly necessary when you do something new, or different, and most people in-stinctively recognize this, although impatience may still cause them to take unnecessary risks.

Danger also lurks in the routine task that we have done over and over. Here, familiarity, boredom, or tiredness may lull us into unthinking, automatic repetition. Be alert for this, and when you feel it happening, stop and take stock of your situa-tion. Review the safety hazards associated with what you are doing. That should get your brain working again.

you get hurt.

You owe it to yourself, your family, and your co-workers to PUT SAFETY FIRST.

0.5

Responsibilities of the owner

Organization of work

This Operation and Maintenance Manual must always be kept near the machine so that it is accessible to all concerned.

The general, statutory and other legal regulations on accident prevention and environmental protection must also be observed, in addition to the Manual material. The operators and maintenance personnel must be instructed accordingly. This obligation also includes the handling of dangerous substances and the provision and use of personal protective equipment.

Ensure that work on the machine is only carried out by reliable persons who have been appropriately trained for such work.

Training

Everyone working on or with the machine must be duly trained with regard to the correct use of the ma-chine, the correct use of safety equipment, the foreseeable dangers that may arise during operation of the machine, and the safety precautions to be taken.

In addition, the personnel must be instructed to check all safety devices at regular intervals.

Persons being trained on the machine may only work on or with the machine under the constant supervi-sion of an experienced operator. Observe the minimum age limits required by law.

Condition of Machine and Workplace

Ensure that the machine and its safety equipment is kept in good working order.

Ensure that the work area is well lit, and protected from the elements, such as rain, snow, abrasive dust, and extremes of temperature.

of work pieces.

0.6

Responsibilities of the operator and maintenance personnel

Safety equipment

All machines are delivered with safety equipment that must not be removed or bypassed during operation.

The correct functioning of safety equipment on the machine must be checked:

at the start of every shift.

after maintenance and repair work

Emergency Stop Button ( E-Stops)

Always be aware of the location of the Emergency Stop Button(s). Do not allow material or objects to block your access to an Emergency Stop.

Damage

If any changes capable of impairing safety are observed in the machine or its operation, such as damage, malfunctions, or irregularities, then appropriate steps must be taken immediately, the machine switched off, locked-out, and the fault reported to the responsible person.

Safe operation

The machine may only be operated when in good working order and when all protective equipment is in place and operational.

Keep a safe distance from all moving parts – especially the blade and vises

Stock should not be loaded onto the saw if the blade is running

Long and heavy stock should always be properly supported in front of and behind the saw.

Faults

The machine must be switched off and locked-out before starting to remedy any faults.

Safety hazard labels

Safety hazard labels, and other instructional labels on the machine must be observed. They must be clearly visible and legible at all times. If they become damaged they must be replaced.

Clothing, jewellery, protective equipment

Personnel operating or working on the machine must not wear un-restrained long hair, loose-

-tective equipment such as safety glasses and safety boots and any other equipment required by plant regulations.

0.7

Gloves

Experience has shown that careless use of gloves around machinery is a major factor in serious hand injuries.

Gloves should not be worn when operating or adjusting the machine, except:

Wear protective gloves when handling bandsaw blades at blade changes.

Gloves may be worn when handling work pieces, only if the machine is in Manual Mode and the bandsaw blade is not running.

If the machine is running in Auto Mode, and only if the cut parts are greater than 24 inches long, it may be possible to safely wear gloves for handling the cut parts, but the wearer of the gloves must never put his hands near the blade for any reason. If the cut

parts bucket or other suitable arrangement to avoid the necessity to pick them off the machine by hand.

Hearing protection

Ear protection must be worn whenever necessary.

The level and duration of noise emission requiring hearing protection depends upon the national regulations in the country in which the machine is being used.

The actual level of noise emission by band sawing machines depends upon work piece size, shape and material, blade type, blade speed and feed rate.

The only practical course of action is to measure the actual noise emission levels for the type of work that is typically done. With reference to national standards, decide upon the necessary hearing protection required.

In the absence of such measurements, it is advisable for anyone exposed to long periods of moderate to loud noise to wear hearing protection. It is important to understand that hearing loss is gradual and easily goes un-noticed until it is serious and irreversible.

Workplace

must be level and clean, without any build-up of chips, off-cuts, coolant, or hydraulic oil.

The workplace must be well lit, and protected from the elements, such as rain, snow, abrasive dust, and extremes of temperature

Nothing may ever be placed on, or leaned against the machine, with the obvious exception of the work piece on the table and conveyor of the machine.

0.8

Master Disconnect

off the master electrical disconnect switch, and locking it out so that it cannot be switched on again without authorization.

On Hyd-Mech machines the Master Disconnect Switch will be of one of three types:

Rotary switch mounted in electrical control cabinet door and inter-locked with door

Lever switch mounted in separate box mounted on the machine

Supply disconnect switch supplied by user at installation and usually wall-mounted within sight of the machine, depending upon local regulations.

In almost all jurisdictions, it is required that owners of industrial equipment establish and post lock-out pro-cedures. Know and use the lock-out procedures of your company or organization.

Residual Risks

The machine is still not completely de-energized if an electrical cabinet door type switch is locked-out.

The line side of the disconnect switch itself remains energized.

Variable speed blade drives store dangerous voltage in their capacitors, and this requires time to dissipate. After locking out power, wait 3 minutes before beginning to work on machine electrical circuits.

If compressed air is supplied to the machine to power a mist lubrication system or other devices, it should be disconnected, and any stored air pressure released before working on the machine.

The weight of individual machine components represents stored potential energy that can be released if they fall when disconnected. Secure these components with adequate hoisting gear before disassembly.

1.1

SECTION 1 - INSTALLATIONUpon delivery of your new S-20/23 saw, it is imperative that a thorough inspection be undertaken to check for any damage that could have been sustained during shipping. Special attention should be paid to the electrical and hydraulic systems

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

B. Generous coolant application is essential with almost all materials. A high quality and well mixed cool--

blade teeth. Noticeable stock vibration reduces performance and blade life. Consideration should be given to reorient the stock or additional clamping measures (wood between vise jaws and work-piece)

D. The proper blade speed for the work-piece material must be selected. Use the following chart as a starting point.

a. Blade speeds higher than recommended will quickly dull the blade. Blue chips are evidence of excessive blade speed.

b. Lower than recommended speeds will not prolong blade life and will require reduced feed rate, but, reduced speeds may be helpful in reducing vibration and would increase blade life in that case.

E. The proper feed rate must be applied. Feed rate is the speed at which the head free falls and is set with the feed rate control knob. The head will descend more slowly when the blade encounters the work-piece but the force of the blade on the work will not be changed unless the setting

is provided by the appearance of the cut chips which ideally form nicely curled clock springs (note that cast irons and interrupted cuts result in short, broken chips even at ideal feed rates).Excessive feed rate will result in short blade life and/or crooked cuts.

OPTIMUM BLADE PITCH

Teeth per inch (T.P.I.)

Selecting a blade with a proper tooth pitch is important in order to achieve optimal cutting rates and good blade life.

many teeth per inch is recommended. For wide materials a blade with a coarse pitch should be used.

It is impractical to change the blade to the proper pitch every time a dif-ferent width of material is cut and it is not necessary. However, remem-

must be fed slower on wide material because the small gullets be-tween the teeth will become packed with chips before they get across and out of the cut. Too coarse a blade must be fed slower because it has fewer teeth cutting and there is a limit to the depth of a cut taken by each tooth.

MECHANICAL CONTROLS

VISE OPERATION

The material clamping vise is a cam operated double handle locking vise. The saw operator can push the vise handle to close the jaw on the material and then lock it from either side of the saw. The handles have two posi-tions, forward toward the stock to unlock the vise and away from the stock to lock.

Vise Handles

2.6

HEAD SWING AND BRAKE

An integral function of the S-20/23 Series II is the ability to make mitered cuts at angles between 90 and 45 . The Head swing of the S-20/23 Series II is easily changed to set

lever, and then manually moving the Head to the cutting angle desired. An angle scale with a pointer in clear view of the saw operator allows for accurate setting of the cutting angle.

The Angle Brake lever is then locked in position by pushing it into the down position. Note that the angle brake should be locked into position whenever cutting with the saw. To set the saw to the 90 position, set the Head in the fully down position and move the Head until the frame meets the 90stop bolt which is located on the vise post.

COOLANT CONTROLS

The main coolant control is found on the control panel.

The S-20/23 Series II band saw is equipped with two independently controlled coolant spouts that are capable of supplying a generous

blade as it moves through the carbide pads into the material to be cut. The guide arm outlets should be adjusted to apply an even covering of coolant to the blade.

hose should be used when cutting solid bars, bundles, or wide

material where the blade is cutting.NOTE: When cutting materials that do not need constant coolant,

to prevent blade scoring by the carbide pads as the blade moves through them.

about mid span of the cut.

BLADE SPEED SELECTION (not applicable to S-23)

The blade speed of the S-20 can be changed between four different speeds. The speed is determined by the ratio of the pulleys that drive the V belt. The four pulley sets give the optional speeds of 90, 140, 220 and 310 ft/min.

Note: Blade drive with single phase motors have only three speeds available.

2.7

CHANGING BELT POSITION

To change the blade speed of the S-20 it is necessary to release the V belt tension and move the belt to another set of pulley grooves. The tension on the V belt is maintained by means of a toggle handle assembly that moves the motor. As the handle is moved to is locking position the motor is driven tight against the V belt. The toggle handle can be adjusted to change the effective tension on the V belt by setting the lock nuts which mount the handle to the motor mount plate. The motor mount plate pivots on rubber bushings that support the motor.

GUIDE ARM POSITIONING

The S-20/23 Series II guide arms are adjustable to accommodate varying material widths. The guide arms should be adjusted as close to the material width as possible while still allowing the material to pass between them. This process of matching the guide arm width to the material size is important to optimize blade life.

To adjust the guide arms the locking handles are loosened and then the guide arms will slide on the main guide bar that holds them. To loosen the handle it should be turned counter clockwise and to tighten the handle, turn it clockwise. The photo illustrates the Guide Arms with the handles in the LOCKED position.

3.1

LOCK -OUT

Purpose:To prevent injury to workers caused by unexpected start-up of machines being worked on.ORWhere the starting of a machine or device may endanger the safety of a worker.

a) Control switches or other control mechanisms shall be locked out; ANDb) Other effective precautions necessary to prevent such starting shall be taken.

LOCK OUT PROCEDURE

Whenever work is to be performed on a machine, the following steps shall be taken:

1. Operator shuts down the machine

2. The person in charge should follow Lockout procedures as is required by his organization.

Switch off before beginning work.

The emergency switch, which is used to turn the hydraulics off, should not be the only means of shutting the power off before cleaning or performing maintenance to the machine. The main power disconnect should be switched off and locked.

When performing maintenance on the electrical system the main disconnect, which supplies power from the electrical service to the machine, should be switched off.

Allow three minutes after turning off the power from the main electrical service to the saw before opening any electrical enclosures. Your machine might be equipped with a variable frequency

to completely discharge

SECTION 3 - MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING

3.2

BLADE CHANGING PROCEDURE

NOTE: Wear gloves for protection from the sharp blade.

1. Open the idler wheel and drive wheel doors and swing the head to 45 as this will make it easier to grip the blade closer to both wheels

2. Loosen the Blade Tensioner by turning counter clockwise.3. Loosen the carbide tension handles by turning counter clockwise ¼

turn.4. At the top of the head, the saw blade runs in a protective channel.

Grip the blade at each end of this channel and twist the blade teeth down past the channel and slide the blade forward. Let the blade rest on the out-feed table, and then slide the blade down and out of the carbide guides.

5. Your new blade will be in a coil. While wearing gloves, hold the blade away from yourself, and twist the blade to uncoil it. Do not let the

damage.6. Place the new blade in the carbide guides and then slide the blade

over the wheels. The teeth should be pointing towards the drive side as they pass through the carbide guides.

7. With the blade in place, turn the tensioner handle clockwise until the large black washer contacts the stop bolt. This will set the blade tension correctly.

8. With the blade tension set, turn the two carbide-locking handles clockwise to the locked position. Jog the blade a few rotations to check that the blade is not moving in or out on the blade wheels. NOTE: As the blade tracking will stay fairly constant, it should be checked occasionally as shown on the drive wheel-tracking photo below. The blade teeth should protrude from .185” to .200” from the face of the blade wheels. If the tracking requires adjustment, follow the instruction below.

9. BLADE TRACKING ADJUSTMENT – First, inspect the blade wheels for wear or damage and repair as required. Blade tracking adjustment

below, adjust the worst wheel, jog the blade and recheck both wheels. Repeat this process until both wheels

a. IDLER WHEEL ADJUSTMENT S-20 Line On the blade tensioner slide assembly, there are three 9/16” hex head bolts. Loosen the two bolts at the left end by ¼ turn. Loosen the single bolt at the right side of the slide assembly by ½ turn. In the two holes above and below this bolt are two 3/16” Allen key set screws. Turn both set screws ¼ turn and tighten the hex bolt at the right, and then the two bolts at the left. Turning the setscrews clockwise will pull the blade onto the wheel, and turning counter clockwise will push the blade off the wheel. Each ¼ turn will move the blade approximately .02” (5.1mm). There is also a single setscrew at the left end of the slider. Turning it clockwise will push the blade off the wheel.

b. IDLER WHEEL ADJUSTMENT S-23 Line

adjustments, bolts A & B should be loosened but remain snug. This will allow easy movement for the slide assembly. It should be noted that most adjustments can be made with the B & D bolts. Loosening bolt A and turning in set screws C by equal amounts will move the blade off the wheel. Loosening bolt B and turning in set screws D by equal amounts will move the blade on to the wheel. After each C or D adjustment, tighten bolts A & B, run the blade and then check the tracking.

c. DRIVE WHEEL ADJUSTMENT – On the wall behind the drive wheel are two adjusting bolt assemblies and two hex bolts. Loosen all four of them with a ¾” socket and turn the larger hex head bolts ¼ turn with a 1 1/8” socket and extension and then tighten the two bolts in the assemblies. Then tighten the two hex bolts at the left. Turning the 11/8” bolts clockwise will pull the blade onto the wheel and turning counter clockwise will push the blade off. Each ¼ turn will move the blade approximately .02”.

10. Check the blade brush adjustment (p. 3.4) to be sure the blade is being cleaned properly.

BLADE GUIDE ADJUSTMENT

At the bottom of the guide arms are the carbide blade guide assemblies, the photo shows the carbide-locking handle. These assemblies will need to be adjusted occasionally as the carbide pads become worn. To adjust properly, follow this simple procedure. Loosen the hex nut on the locking handle with a 9/16 wrench and turn the handle clockwise until it rests against the coolant tap on the idler guide arm or the roll pin on the drive guide arm. Turn the setscrew clockwise with a 3/16 Allen key until tight and then loosen 1/8 turn and tighten the hex nut. This should put just enough pressure on the blade to permit you to push the blade down approximately 1/8”.

BLADE BRUSH ADJUSTMENT

The machine leaves the factory with the blade brush adjusted for maximum life of the brush. This setting places the ends of the blade brush wires so as to contact the blade at the bottom of the blade gullets. The plastic drive wheel that is driven by the drive wheel face should be held against the blade face with the minimum force that is necessary. As the blade brush wears it is necessary to periodically adjust it closer to the blade or if a new brush is installed, further away from the blade.

As shown, there are two springs on socket head screws holding the brush assembly against the blade. There is also an adjusting socket set screw with a hex nut on it. Loosen the hex nut with a 9/16” wrench and turn the setscrew counter clockwise with a 3/16” Allen key. This will move the brush closer to the blade. Adjust the setscrew so that the brush cleans to the bottom of the blade gullets and tighten the hex nut.

ANGLE BRAKE ADJUSTMENT

The clamping force on the swivel brake can be adjusted to ensure that the Head is held securely and does not move

head securely.

ANGLE BRAKE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE:

Step 5 – Swing the head to 45 and back to ensure that the head moves freely and does not bind on the pivot surfaces. Continue to step 6 if necessary.

BELT TENSION ADJUSTMENT (Not applicable to S23)

Drive belt tension is maintained by the locking of a toggle clamp assembly. The release of the toggle clamp permits the drive belt to be loosened so that the blade speed can be changed by selecting a different pulley ratio.

1. Stop the blade motor. Undo the cover latch and swing the pulley cover away.

2. At the midpoint between pulleys, you should be able to push the belt in ½”. Too much or too little movement will cause slippage or abnormal wear on the belt and other drive system parts.

3. If adjustment is needed, loosen the lock nut with a 9/16” wrench and turn the adjusting bolt until the belt tension is set.

4. Tighten the lock nut. Test the belt on all speeds, and then close the cover.

HEAD DOWN LIMIT SWITCH

The head down limit switch operates to cut power to the blade motor and the coolant pump motor when the Head has descended to the bottom of its travel in the Manual mode. The Head is adjusted so that the blade will descend slightly past the level of the vise wear strips. This setting is critical to ensure that the blade has cut fully through the stock.

The Head Down Limit switch is made with the Head fully down and when the spring post contacts the limit switch at the top of its travel. The Head Down Limit switch is located on the head frame near the pivot point as shown in the photo.

Adjustment of the limit switch is made by changing the position of the set bolt, which is located on the end of the spring post. Lengthening the set bolt will cause the limit switch to activate sooner as the spring post meets the limit switch roller. Shortening the setting bolt by turning it into the spring post will lengthen the time before the Head Limit Switch is activated.

LUBRICATION

The S20/23 was designed to minimize the maintenance requirements, however moving assemblies and contact faces need lubrication on a regular schedule. The lubrication requirements are primarily the saw pivot points which are equipped

General purpose grease is suitable for lubrication.

The lubricant should be applied as frequently as required. Main lubrication points are indicated on the following pictures.

Monthly lubrication is recommended.

SECTION 7 - OPTIONS

Note: A new blade may require initial lubrication with a small quantity of mist coolant applied directly to the blade at the idler guide arm to prevent blade squealing.

Mist coolant - the air powered pump delivers a regulatednumber of pulses of lubricant to a single applicator nozzle.The unit has two control screws.Pulse/Minute - adjusts rate of lubricant use. About 8 to 12 pulse per minute is optimum - more is not better.Air Screw - regulates the jet of air that projects the lubricant from the nozzle onto the blade. Adjustment should be such that lubricant covers the blade without blowing the mist beyond the back edge of the blade.

PULSE / MINUTE

AIR SCREW

MIST COOLANT SYSTEM

Blade breakage switch shuts down blade drive and hydraulic pump motor (S22H, S23H option) in case blade band tension is lost or the blade snaps. It will disable machine operation until the new blade is installed and tensioned.Note: Blade breakage will not disengage head feed operation.

2. HYDRAULIC OIL LEVEL - Semitransparent plastic reservoir allows for easy oil level visual inspection. Oil level should be maintained so the reservoir is always 75-90% full. The useable volume of oil reservoir is 1 US Gallons (3.8 L).3. HYDRAULIC OIL CHANGE - It is recommended to change oil after every 1500 hours of operation or once a year.4. OIL TEMPERATURE - Oil temperature during steady operation should stabilize at about 55-60F (30-33 C) above room teperature. Thus in a 70F (21 C) shop one might expect an oil temperature of about 130F (54 C). Oil temperature should never exceed 176F (80 C).5. HYDRAULIC PRESSURE - Hydraulic pressure is factory set at 450-500PSI (3100-3450 kPa) and should not require any further atteneion.

VARIABLE VISE PRESSURE OPTION (S20H / S23H):

Vise clamping adjustment is located on the face of the hy-draulic power pack door. Clamping pressure is indicated by the pressure gauge adjacent to the pressure control knob. Turning the knob clockwise increases clamping

-nitely from 50PSI to 600PSI, full pump pressure. It has to be taken under consideration that clamp pressure set-ting will affect the clamp speed. The actual usable low clamp pressure setting may be higher than achievable by controls and is limited by mechanical friction of the vise assemblies.Vise clamping pressure components can be accessed easily for service by opening the power pack door.

7.3

OVERHEAD BUNDLING (HYDRAULIC S20H / S23H)

1. The relative speed of the bundling jaws and vise can be adjusted with the needle valves at each cylinder

a) The material should be loaded into the machine vises and advanced to a position where a trim can be performed.b) Close the Fixed Vise until the Overhead Bundling Arm is slightly (1/32” to 1/64”) above the material to be cut.c) Close the ball valve located on the Fixed Overhead Bundling cylinder to lock the position of the Overhead Bundling Arm and then operate as normal
